Grande ferme charentais 1850 avec piscine à 400 mètres de Monkey Park

the property was in a very nice place just wat we were looking for, but the rest was just not wat we were sold from the pictures we soar on line, the house and the outside was very spacious but the cline less of the house and the gardens was very poor, wen we arrived the house was dirty every were full of dust the fridges were dirty the bed covers was full of dog hair, cobwebs every were and the garden was very poor maintained, the swings were broken the chickens were left free so they did there needs on the patios were we had to clean every day, its a very nice place to have a nice holiday but the clines of the place just lets down. many thanks Duarte Freitas

The amount of animals about made the holiday special! Feeding the goats and sheep all the left overs, cuddling the cat, picking up peacock feathers, feeding the ducks and watching chicks growing with mummy hen. The pool was terrific, if a bit far from the house and could have had the cleaner robot every morning! The grounds are great but unkempt as was the house. Sheets, toilets etc very clean but generally the place is cluttered and shabby! Utensils etc for self catering went from silly amounts (plates) to very little (no scissors, one old frying pan etc.) Coffee machine was slowest ever recommend getting pod machine! John and Helen were welcoming and friendly and we were disappointed we didn’t see them to say goodbye this morning!

Super week-end with the family in a Big house. Garden is very large with plenty of Space top enjoy all kind of outdoor games to have fun. It IS also peacefull with all the animals around. Host was super cool and gentle, and Always available for any assistance.

Two groups of family & friends. Three teenagers and four adults. Very relaxed stay with good size pool and activities. The teenagers loved the animals roaming and the owners dog. Adults loved the tranquillity, the interesting buildings and out side spaces. Highly recommended for a rural relaxed laid back retreat.

Extended family of 10 stayed at The Roseraie in Aug-18. The house is beautiful and has everything you need. All the bedrooms were very comfortable. We had BBQs / cooked most nights and really enjoyed dining outside in the garden or by the porch drinking local wine until late in the evening! The kids were in the pool every day and loved the large garden with outdoor toys. Overall it was a very enjoyable and relaxed holiday.

This location had the best of both worlds for our family. It's a beautiful old farmhouse close to a small village in the heart of rural France. My wife and myself loved the opportunity to relax, enjoy the countryside and visit the local villages and towns. Our boys loved visiting the nearby monkey park and the theme park in Futuroscope which was a short drive away. The farmhouse itself is beautiful, charming and tranquil. Our boys had a great time swimming in the pool and getting up close to all types of animals. They were very excited collecting eggs for breakfast every morning! The house itself is very well kept with large, spacious bedrooms. The owners, John and Helen, live in the house and are very warm and welcoming. On arrival, they gave us loads of information about the area and were keen to make sure we enjoyed our stay. They were brilliant with our kids, taking them around with them as they fed the animals and let them help out. We sampled lots of home made jams and chutneys, all of which were made from produce of the farmhouse and were available with breakfast everyday. We have already decided to go back for a longer stay (we stayed three days) and couldn't recommend this lovely farmhouse enough.

Amazing location in the heart of rural france, authentic french house with a fab garden, complete with chickens, ducks and of course, the peacock! We had the white room with its own terrace overlooking the garden and pool, it was a beautiful room, complete with four poster! Immaculately clean and characterful. What makes this place really outstanding is the warmth and friendliness of the hosts, John and Helen, and their charming daughters. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Breakfast was continental style, enhanced by the amazing home made jams..delicious! We loved it and definitely will return. Thank you so much for making our time so special. The whole experience was a delight.
